Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction : D’après le travail de Doucet-Jeffray N. les hommes sont demandeurs d’informations sur le déroulement de la sexualité pendant la grossesse et expriment des craintes. Nous avons donc étudié les représentations que pouvaient avoir les hommes de la sexualité pendant la grossesse et en post-partum et exploré leurs attentes en termes d’informations. Méthode : Il s’agit d’une étude qualitative avec entretiens semi directifs anonymes de 12 hommes recrutés en échantillonnage raisonné. La méthode phénoménologique a été choisie pour comprendre au mieux le vécu des hommes de cette expérience. Résultats : On observe des modifications qualitatives et quantitatives de la sexualité des couples pendant la grossesse. Les hommes rapportent une intimité sexuelle décrite comme plus douce, avec des positions adaptées à la proéminence du ventre. L’homme décrit une sexualité bridée. Ceci est lié principalement à des craintes de nuire au fœtus et à son développement par la sexualité. Ceci est aussi dû à la transition identitaire des deux partenaires et à la fatigue de la femme enceinte. Sur le plan quantitatif, on observe une diminution de la fréquence des rapports sexuels en début de grossesse, et une augmentation ou une diminution de cette fréquence au troisième trimestre.Les professionnels de santé sont considérés comme une source fiable d’information sur le sujet. Les informations doivent être délivrées à l’initiative du professionnel, de façon séquencée, adaptée et personnalisée. Conclusion : Des tabous et des représentations erronées de la sexualité persistent. Ceux-ci aboutissent à des craintes de l’homme. Les hommes attendent du professionnel de santé qu’il initie le sujet en consultation de façon séquencée, adaptée et personnalisée. Ceci permettrait d’améliorer la qualité de l’intimité du couple.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ce mémoire traite de la représentation de la sexualité des primipères après un accouchement. Il a pour but d'identifier, du point de vue des primipères, les éventuels impacts de l'accouchement sur la reprise des rapports sexuels en post-partum. Nous nous sommes donc intéressés à la manière dont les hommes se projettent dans leur future sexualité suite à la naissance de leur premier enfant. Nous avons ensuite observé le rôle des sages femmes dans l'information et la prévention des difficultés potentielles liées à la reprise des rapports sexuels en post-partum. Pour répondre à cela, nous avons réalisé une étude observationnelle descriptive mono centrique réalisée à la maternité du Centre Hospitalier de Bourg-en-Bresse, au moyen d'entretiens réalisés après l'accouchement, dans le service des suites de couches. Nous avons interrogés des primipères dont la grossesse ainsi que l'accouchement de leur compagne s'étaient déroulés physiologiquement. Il nous a semblé intéressant d'écouter exclusivement les primipères qui ont vécu l'événement pour· la première fois. La première partie de ce mémoire aborde des rappels historiques concernant l'évolution de la place de l'homme en salle de naissance, les modifications psychologiques animant l'homme devenant p~re ainsi que quelques études concernant la sexualité masculine pendant la grossesse et celle du post-pattum. La deuxième partie consiste en l'analyse de nos résultats de notre enquête. Enfin, dans la troisième partie, nous discutons des résultats obtenus et nous proposons des pistes de réflexions pour la prévention de difficultés potentielles liées à la reprise des rapports sexuels en post-partum

Download or read book Painted Love written by Hollis Clayson and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2003-10-30 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this engrossing book, Hollis Clayson provides the first description and analysis of French artistic interest in women prostitutes, examining how the subject was treated in the art of the 1870s and 1880s by such avant-garde painters as Cézanne, Degas, Manet, and Renoir, as well as by the academic and low-brow painters who were their contemporaries. Clayson not only illuminates the imagery of prostitution-with its contradictory connotations of disgust and fascination-but also tackles the issues and problems relevant to women and men in a patriarchal society. She discusses the conspicuous sexual commerce during this era and the resulting public panic about the deterioration of social life and civilized mores. She describes the system that evolved out of regulating prostitutes and the subsequent rise of clandestine prostitutes who escaped police regulation and who were condemned both for blurring social boundaries and for spreading sexual licentiousness among their moral and social superiors. Clayson argues that the subject of covert prostitution was especially attractive to vanguard painters because it exemplified the commercialization and the ambiguity of modern life.

Download or read book The Perfect Servant written by Kathryn M. Ringrose and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2007-11-01 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Perfect Servant reevaluates the place of eunuchs in Byzantium. Kathryn Ringrose uses the modern concept of gender as a social construct to identify eunuchs as a distinct gender and to illustrate how gender was defined in the Byzantine world. At the same time she explores the changing role of the eunuch in Byzantium from 600 to 1100. Accepted for generations as a legitimate and functional part of Byzantine civilization, eunuchs were prominent in both the imperial court and the church. They were distinctive in physical appearance, dress, and manner and were considered uniquely suited for important roles in Byzantine life. Transcending conventional notions of male and female, eunuchs lived outside of normal patterns of procreation and inheritance and were assigned a unique capacity for mediating across social and spiritual boundaries. This allowed them to perform tasks from which prominent men and women were constrained, making them, in essence, perfect servants. Written with precision and meticulously researched, The Perfect Servant will immediately take its place as a major study on Byzantium and the history of gender.

Download or read book The Production of Space written by Henri Lefebvre and published by Wiley-Blackwell. This book was released on 1992-04-08 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Henri Lefebvre has considerable claims to be the greatest living philosopher. His work spans some sixty years and includes original work on a diverse range of subjects, from dialectical materialism to architecture, urbanism and the experience of everyday life. The Production of Space is his major philosophical work and its translation has been long awaited by scholars in many different fields. The book is a search for a reconciliation between mental space (the space of the philosophers) and real space (the physical and social spheres in which we all live). In the course of his exploration, Henri Lefebvre moves from metaphysical and ideological considerations of the meaning of space to its experience in the everyday life of home and city. He seeks, in other words, to bridge the gap between the realms of theory and practice, between the mental and the social, and between philosophy and reality. In doing so, he ranges through art, literature, architecture and economics, and further provides a powerful antidote to the sterile and obfuscatory methods and theories characteristic of much recent continental philosophy. This is a work of great vision and incisiveness. It is also characterized by its author's wit and by anecdote, as well as by a deftness of style which Donald Nicholson-Smith's sensitive translation precisely captures.

Download or read book Beauvoir in Time written by Meryl Altman and published by Value Inquiry Book. This book was released on 2020 with total page 570 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Beauvoir in Time situates Simone de Beauvoir's The Second Sex in the historical context of its writing and in later contexts of its international reception, from then till now. The book takes up three aspects of Beauvoir's work more recent feminists find embarrassing: "bad sex," "dated" views about lesbians, and intersections with race and class. Through close reading of her writing in many genres, alongside contemporaneous discourses (good and bad novels in French and English, outmoded psychoanalytic and sexological authorities, ethnographic surrealism, the writing of Richard Wright and Franz Fanon), and in light of her travels to the U.S. and China, the author uncovers insights more recent feminist methodologies obscure, showing Beauvoir is still good to think with today"--
